I did it two days ago with the Mac app. The pop up wasn’t indicating I needed to put it into DFU, but once I did that it ran the jailbreak no problem.
I believe you need to connect the USB cable to the ATV and Mac BEFORE the power cable to the wall. I connected mine to a different power outlet after the jb, waited, and Kodi appeared no problem. Now I just need add ons.
Connect Apple TV to Mac via USB
connect Apple TV to power
place in DFU mode
open black box
click jailbreak
once complete, remove USB and plug in HDMI to tv

Is there any way?

Google the project on GitHub and use Linux
Thanks man

What are the benefits of jailbraking ATV3? Still use only for Airplay.
It can install apps and shit
Like? Imagine if someone just responded to your question the same way you answer a question….
What?
can you watch free tv / movie streams with it?
Have you been able to jailbreak it?
No :(
Will this allow use of the USB port?
